Yeah, but it’s not land and the analogy quickly breaks down given that’ ya know, NAT exists and DNS servers are under soverign control.

Just de-Google yourself and your family. It’s long past time.

Drupal earned that reputation for so many architectural upheavals and pointless version churning. I grok innovation, but one of the core properties of web infrastructure is that it's relatively (in a software sense) architecturally stable. Drupal was not that.

I can concur on the short-term benefits for longer sets as well as the shorter recovery. Creatine is just one of those no-brainer supplements.

It's safe, cheap, and long-term-study proven to be extremely effective.

You will want to increase your daily hydration (at least for otherwise healthy men, a good sign is that you're "peeing clear") as Creatine does increase water retention.

No, they’re really not.

Turns out, sail-power scales sublinearly and, shocker, the wind isn’t a reliable source of power for the logistics demands of today’s supply chains.

We’re never going back to wind, but we will be de-carbonizing shipping either with ammonia combustion, fuel cells, or both.

WJW, what a blatant John Deere PR piece.

Even by modern WIRED's low standards of journalism, Boone Ashworth has managed to be subterranean.

Wait until the general public learns about the tech behind most of the currently fielded smoke detectors.

Also, this has long-since been obviated with active acoustic/vibration detection in modern rotor drive-trains.

All that said, every registered civilian and military chopper has high duty-cycle manual inspection of rotor blades too. They use both their Mark I eye-balls and ultrasonic transducers.

Being poor has zero correlation with being “lazy”.

Being poor is highly correlated with having little to no access to financial “leverage” so it’s very difficult to earn any sort of non-linear return on capital.

Additionally, the vast majority of your capital is solely the current market price of your individual labor.

FWIW, women are equally competitive in ultra-running, so I suspect the claimed advantages only apply at faster paces & longer gaits.

Given that I got my first computer at 12, given all the screen time with video games and programming in my youth + my day-job in software I absolutely guarantee I've clocked more hours on a computer than "with my family". I'm OK with that.

Computers have consolidated work, media, and entertainment all within the same "box" and even a good deal of close friend interactions are now mediated "on the screen".

I'm certain early hunter/gatherers would've been equally as shocked seeing factory workers "leave the home" and "constantly meet strangers".

Different praxis for different eras.

Yeah. I don’t see weather or theft addressed in this design.

I recall a wheel-mounted rotor system from a few years back that did address theft, tire-wear, and weather, but it suffered from far too little torque and very limited battery life.

Oh this guy again. This guy is a total douche. Not related, he previously tweeting being "inspired by" Martin Shkreli and writing letters to him in prison.

Something, something the company you keep.

There’s nothing quite like a poor analogy to trigger HN.

WJW. This entire article is assuming there’s a single measure of “success” in this endeavor and the simulation isn’t remotely anything like mowing an actual lawn.

I’m usually a huge fan of Pudding, but this completely misses the mark.
